Background

James considers this record a "miracle" after experiencing emotional distress, due to her father's death from cancer, and a bad breakup. She then gained strength from her losses to write a new album, with songs consisting of both negative and positive lyrical content. Thus, the album is titled "Subconscious" because "the songs wrote themselves subconsciously".[3]

Samantha also expressed concern writing new songs because she wanted to satisfy her audience.[4] She then started to work with Sebastian Morton again, but he got occupied by other project, so Samantha got in touch with junior high school friend Shane Drasin to produce the remainder of the album.[5]
